Experimental Drawing

Project: Gesture – Exercise: Energy

Quickly sketch the figure, trying to convey the sense of energy each pose creates.

Slightly misreading the brief where I should have used A4 or A3 sheets per drawing, I took my A4 sketchbook into the garage where my husband was doing his workout. I made a few drawings per sheet except one which was on its own, however, not particularly well placed in the page. As these were to illustrate energy I worked quickly trying to capture the movement without actual posing of the model but catching what I could in the time, with the exception of the Krav Maga poses which were static briefly as difficult to keep for long.

It may also be worth noting that these exercise are out of sequence with the course schedule due to availability of a model, rather than waiting doing nothing, have moved on to keep the momentum of work.
